Our tour of Sayulita and San Pancho was beautiful and super fun!🌴🌊 We were delighted with the whole tour. Beach, magical town, incredible views and 0 stress. But what really got all the applause was the attention from our guide Franco and our driver Neli. Their explanation was clear, interesting and full of facts we didn't know. The treatment from both was incredible: super kind, patient, attentive to every detail and always with the best attitude. It shows that they love what they do. Thank you Franco and Neli for making this day an unforgettable experience. 100% recommended! ✨
Hola Montse, ¡Qué gusto saber que Sayulita y San Pancho les regalaron un día tan especial! Nos encanta que disfrutaran de los paisajes, el ambiente relajado y la esencia de ambos destinos. Franco y Nery hicieron que el recorrido fuera aún más enriquecedor con su dedicación y calidez. Gracias por recomendarnos; esperamos acompañarlos nuevamente para descubrir juntos otro rincón inolvidable de la Bahía de Banderas. ¡Gracias por elegirnos!🌴✨😊 Saludos,
We had an amazing experience with Omar and Chema on our excursion to Sayulita and San Pancho. Chema was friendly, knowledgeable, and organized, sharing great insight into the local culture and history while making sure everyone was comfortable and the day ran smoothly. We never felt rushed and had plenty of time to explore both beautiful towns. Chema was always available to answer questions and offered excellent recommendations for places to eat, shop, and visit. If you’re looking for a fun, informative, and stress-free excursion, we highly recommend Omar and Chema. They made our visit to Sayulita and San Pancho a memorable highlight of our trip.

The guide spent almost the entire trip entertaining a Mexican couple and totally neglected everyone else on the tour. We spent way too much time in San Pancho and had minimal time to enjoy Sayulita. All 4 of us were very disappointed with the day!

Our trip to Sayulita and San Pancho with Vallarta Adventures was a blast. Our guide was excellent, knowledgeable, funny, and friendly. This trip offers cool little stops for treats and hsnacks that you may go past without knowing if you were on your own. The amount of driving is very reasonable, it’s only about an hour away from PV, with time to explore after the tour in both Sayulita and San Pancho. Definitely recommend!

Thank you for your recommendation—it means a lot to us! We hope to welcome you back soon for another memorable adventure. Warm regards,
Sadly, tragically even, I’ve forgotten the name of our guide who was FABULOUS! Our driver was Ismael. I learned so much about the history of the region and it’s indigenous peoples, SAN Pancho was the highlight for me, and I happily would have spent all our time there. The town is unique in its sustainable approach, and is a hotbed of creativity. They even have a circus school for local kids started by Giles Laliberté, the founder of the Cirque du Soleil. Sayulita is a tourist town. You can shop, eat and go to the beach. If there’s anything else to do, I missed it. Vallarta adventures, if you can add the name of our guide in the comments, I’d appreciate it. He was so good I’d take any tour he leads.
Hola, Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled to hear that San Pancho left such a lasting impression and that you enjoyed learning about the history, culture, and sustainability of the town. Ismael and our team are delighted that your journey was comfortable and informative. We’ll be sure to note your feedback about your guide and truly appreciate your kind words—our guides love creating memorable experiences, and it’s wonderful to know his efforts made your tour so special. Sayulita offers a different vibe, and we’re glad you enjoyed exploring both towns. We can’t wait to welcome you on another adventure soon! 😊 Warm regards,
We must say that we were all disappointed in this tour. Nothing to do with Carla our hostess. Carla and the driver was fine. It was the tour itself. When we visit new towns, we expected to hear about the town itself. There was not much history to learn. And in Saluyita, it was free time. The whole group split and we were to re-meet at a certain time. The lunch is not a lunch. It was a sample of food. The washroom in San Pancho market were discussing. And the one at the restaurant were not working. Sorry, I can’t recommend this.
Hola Richard, Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re glad Carla and the driver made a positive impression. We’re sorry the tour didn’t meet your expectations regarding historical information, meal size, and facilities. Your feedback is valuable, and we will review these areas to improve future guest experiences. Warm regards,
I wish there had been time in San Pancho to see the town and visit the beach. We could have visited EITHER the road market OR the chocolate shop. And spent less time at lunch. The additional activities should be noted on the tour description so we know what we are signing up for.
